Simply dominating the Toronto Raptors from the opening tip of Game 2, LeBron James led the Cavs to a 113-90 victory on Wednesday. James finished the game with 39 points, which is quite impressive. But since he made 15 free-throws, James scored 39 points on just 15 shots, an impressive feat that hasn’t been done since 1984.
That’s right, James’ performance in Game 2 is a rarity in NBA history. Only one other player, Terry Porter, has had a similar type of performance. And Porter did that in 1992.
